Cronulla Sharks will face a tough match against Canberra Raiders in the NRL finals.
The Cronulla Sharks will face their most challenging task yet this week as they travel to the nation's capital to take on the minor premiers, Canberra Raiders.
Entering the Saturday night clash as underdogs, the Sharks are no strangers to advancing to the third week of the NRL finals series, having done so in 2024 after breaking their finals curse.
In a do-or-die match, the Raiders will throw everything at them after a golden-point loss to the Brisbane Broncos and will have the crowd in their favour, as well as being accustomed to the cold weather conditions.
But Cronulla shouldn't be underestimated, especially after defeating the Sydney Roosters in a hard-fought battle in the Shire last Saturday.
